Just wonderful

With pets

The cabin is as special as everyone says it is. Charming and rustic inside, beautiful outside. But the best part of my experience was the kindness John and Patti showed me after getting stuck in the first snow. They welcomed me into their home and John actually pulled me out with his tractor. Good people. I plan on coming back sooner than later.

We have been to John and Patti's many times! It is such a special place, and has become tradition going there. Such lovely people, and such a special place. Look forward to coming back next year

Wonderful time in the woods!

my partner and I had such a special and cozy time in the cabin! it was plenty warm enough with the wood fireplace and John was incredibly responsive and kind- we did puzzles, played guitar, made delicious breakfast and dinners and did some local hiking! cannot wait to return ❤️

The view was incredible, and the cabin was cozy. It hit just below freezing the nights I was there but the wood stove kept the cabin cozy throughout the night. It’s a great little cabin in the middle of the woods for this time of year.

Perfect getaway!

This is the perfect space for a weekend getaway. We enjoyed walks, sunsets, a beautiful view, and sitting by the outdoor firepit.
